Wardell Company purchased a minicomputer on January 1, 2022, at a cost of $40,000. The computer was depreciated
using the straight-line method over an estimated five-year life with an estimated residual value of $4,000. On January 1,
2024, the estimate of useful life was changed to a total of 10 years, and the estimate of residual value was changed to
$900.

balance method instead of the straight-line method.
